Here is a response from a woman, Paula Hart who was one of Ammon’s supporters during the time he was in jail.

An open letter to Ammon Bundy in regards to the border situation;

First off, I withdrew my support and stopped following you and your family a while back for reasons you obviously don't care to know, so nothing you've said in the past couple of weeks has made any real difference to me. I've only become aware of this because of all our mutual friends. I have taken the time to watch your videos and read your related posts.
You have every right to your opinions and I don't hate you for them. Honestly, I don't even disagree with them. I, too, think that we need proper vetting and that the ones that come in LEGALLY should not be given government assistance. I have no problem with that, and I don't think your followers do either, although many of us DO feel that unless or until we get our own house in order we shouldn't take in more houseguests.

What I DO have a problem with is this:

- You KNEW 5 minutes after your first video aired (11/15) that people seemed to be misunderstanding what you were actually saying by the responses you got. You just kind of sat back and let things ride-not going out of your way to CLEARLY correct the misunderstanding.

You posted a video link (11/19), about a pastor who joined the caravan and his take on it. Ignoring all the other videos that people were sharing with you of others who were reporting from within the caravan.
On 11/27 you made a post about your next show and listed the talking points. You also made a video about all the "hate" you were seeing because of it and how YOU had found a "middle" ground to the whole thing. Ironically, YOUR middle ground just happened to be the middle ground already in place...proper vetting and only legals allowed in. **scratches head**

On the 29th, you put up a petition to sponsor a REFUGEE family, posted a news clip about Cliven's thoughts, your NPR interview, your second segment on the Liberty Effect, and a post about how "Hate is easy. Love takes courage" You ignored what everyone was screaming about. Take care of our own FIRST. It really is hard to hear someone set up a sponsorship for others when our own fellow Americans aren't or can't even be helped. I'm not sure why you can't understand this.

On the 30th, you posted an LDS video and Bible verse on how we are supposed to treat travelers and foreigners, according to God. Yet ignoring ALL of the other Bible verses that talk about the rules God himself placed upon HIS nation in regards to foreigners wanting to come into it- even those posted by your fellow Mormons. Then, you made 9 seperate posts in relation to the issue of foreigners/immigrants/refugees. Posts that were intended solely to further poke at people already upset over the supposed "misunderstanding".

Today, you posted an article about Cliven's statement and ***FINALLY*** a post/meme CLEARLY CORRECTING and CLARIFYING what you really said in your first video 2 weeks prior. Sadly, you did it in a way that was intended to "spank" your followers, as if the entire thing was THEIR fault, alone.

-In the past 2 weeks, you let the misunderstanding grow. You told people that if they didn't see or feel things the way YOU did that THEY were "un-Christian, selfish, fearful, and ignorant of the TRUTH". You were arrogant, condescending, and too full of pride to LISTEN and RESPOND to all the comments, as if you and you alone are the only one who understands the situation, the Bible, the Constitution, and what's right and wrong for OUR country and your fellow Americans.

- You were in jail for a long time, and before that you were living in a beautiful home and running a business, so you may have a different perspective than most. Let me fill you in on a few things....
While you and all of the P3's were in prison, the thousands of people who supported you all were scrambling to raise awareness, raise funds for your commissary needs, attorney fees, the needs of your wives and children, and every little thing you all needed, and to help pay peoples way so they could be at the courthouses, jails, rallys, or whatever event there was. We held auctions to raise funds, people were making and selling things to earn money to be able to give to it all. We were bled dry. Do you know why?!!! Because most of us were barely making ends meet ourselves! We have families, jobs, needs, and lives of our own and ON TOP OF ALL THAT, we went even further in order to support all of you guys. YOU DEPENDED ON US and it took everything we had-or didn't have in most cases-to meet YOUR NEEDS. Did you catch that? It took 1,000's of us just to cover the needs of 50 men and their families!! Your fellow P3's, many times, told us to give the money we raised for them and their families to YOURS. Did you know that? There were times we couldn't even meet their needs, no matter how hard we tried, because everyone had just given to yours!

So, to hear you say that you started a petition to help FOREIGNERS, rather than those who stood with you and your family, our own homeless, veterans, or moms with kids, right here in our own backyard, who are fleeing domestic violence situations, felt like a slap in the face and people reacted to that. And you refused to acknowledge all those comments, except to tell people to "go support them, then".
Are you kidding me? Get out of the bubble you live in and take a look around! Things aren't the way they used to be. They aren't even close to how God intended them to be. Churches are about making money, NOT helping the needy. If they were, then your church would have been helping all of the Bundy's lessening the burden on us. People are living and dying on the streets in every city and town accross this nation. People aren't helping their neighbors like they used to because THEY CAN'T!!! Do you understand that- at all? American's are slaves to this system and are trying to survive while fighting to make it better and you have the audacity to tell us we are being "selfish and un-Christian" for not wanting to have to add even more people to the problem?!! That we hate those wanting and waiting to come here?!!! This isn't about hate, it's about being responsible and practical!

Why don't you seriously stop and think about THIS...where would YOU be today had no one been able to put a dime on YOUR commissary? Had we not raised hundreds of thousands of dollars to pay for YOUR FREE attorneys? Had none of us been able to keep food in the bellies of YOUR wife and kids? Or clothes on their backs? Had we not been standing on the streets and sitting in the courthouses bringing attention to YOUR case?...because we were already tapped out from supporting FOREIGNERS INSTEAD? Seriously, think about this, Ammon. How would you feel if you were in our place? If you had to support yourself and your family, along with all the p3s and their families, and then we told you that we thought it would be "Christian and loving" to add 100,000+ more for you to care for and help. Overwhelmed? Welcome to America!

For me, it's more than all these things. It's more than your entitled, know-it-all, ungrateful, judgemental attitude toward the rest of us that is hard to swallow. It's the fact that you stirred up a hornets nest over a "misunderstanding" and then waited ***2 weeks*** to make a simple post clearly and concisely correcting it like you ***FINALLY*** did today. I'm sitting here trying to figure out how you thought any of that was "Christian" or "loving" on your part. Regardless, I wish you and your entire Bundy family the best from here on out.
I'm officially done.
